In the above demo video, I log-in Raspberry Pi 2 remotely with xrdp run on RPi 2, and remmina (Remote Desktop Client) on another PC running Ubuntu Linux.

Originally, I set Color depth of High color (15 bpp), it work once only. After then, I run netbeans next time, it fail with following error:

x Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
 Major opcode of failed request: 72 (x_PutImage)
 Serial number of failed request: 51
 Current serial number in output stream: 55

To fix it in my case, set Color depth of High color (16 bpp).
